He applied for better positions, was passed over for lesser men, and spent years in a frustrating post in Leipzig where his employers considered him difficult and his output excessive. He died in 1750 without knowing that he was the greatest composer who had ever lived.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe world took another eighty years to catch up. When Felix Mendelssohn revived the \u003ci\u003eSt Matthew Passion\u003c\/i\u003e in 1829 - nearly a century after its composition - the audience encountered music of such structural complexity and emotional depth that it seemed to belong to no particular era at all. The Bach revival that followed transformed how Western music understood itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis output is staggering in both quantity and quality. The \u003ci\u003eWell-Tempered Clavier\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eBrandenburg Concertos\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eMass in B Minor\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eGoldberg Variations - \u003c\/i\u003eeach a landmark, collectively an achievement without parallel in the history of music. He worked within the forms and constraints of his time and somehow transcended them entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe had twenty children. He never traveled far from home. He changed everything anyway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePRODUCT FEATURES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in three sizes: 3×3, 4×4, and 6×6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatte finish for a sophisticated, glare-free surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLaminated surface for durability and color vibrancy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndoor use recommended\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Printify","offers":[{"title":"3\" × 3\"","offer_id":47189273804967,"sku":"30549104325777802166","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4\" × 4\"","offer_id":47189273837735,"sku":"21243345171265656353","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6\" × 6\"","offer_id":47189273870503,"sku":"26350759292686528369","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2249\/5399\/files\/bach-magnet-musician-composer-illustration.jpg?v=1775408433","url":"https:\/\/legendsketch.com\/products\/bach-magnet","provider":"LegendSketch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
